Kitsap’s Pros: Updates Hammel, Prince, Cunningham and Bloomquist

Colorado RHP Jason Hammel had a rough outing on Friday. He last
just 1 2/3 innings against Atlanta, giving up eight hits and seven
runs, all earned. The South Kitsap grad pitched well and had a
no-decision in his first outing.

three doubles on Wednesday and 2-for-5 with a home run on Thursday
for the Hickory Crawdads, a Single-A club for the Texas Rangers. He
was hitting .360 through Thursday with six RBI.

* Aaron Cunningham, who had such a great spring with the Padres,
is off to a slow start at Triple-A Portland. The South Kitsap grad
was hitting .233 with two RBI through the Beavers first eight
games.

* Willie Bloomquist’s still looking for his first hit this
season. The Port Orchard native is 0-for-12 with six strikeouts to
date. He made his third start Friday.
